CABINET FOR SEWING-MACHINES, 80G.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 619,319, dated February 14, 1899.
Application filed April 1, 1898. Serial No. 676,149. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern,.-
Be itknown that we, THEoDoR KUNDTZ and JOSEPH GEDEON, of Cleveland, Cuyahoga county, State of Ohio, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Cabinets for Sewing-Machines, dac.; and we do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it pertains to make and use the same.
Our invention relates to improvements in cabinets for sewing-machines, rito.; and it appertains more especially to the mechanism employed for lowering and elevating the vertically-tiltable load-carrying leaf of the cabinet.
The primary objects of our invention are to provide simple and durable mechanism for raising and lowering the aforesaid leaf, to provide a bearing for the said leaf centrally between the ends of the leaf, and to facilitate or render easy the actuating of the leaf and load.
With these objects in view our invention consists in certain features of construction and combinations of parts hereinafter de-I scribed, and pointed out in the claims.
Our invention involves also other meritorious features of construction hereinafter par ticularly referred to.
In the accompanying drawings, Figure lis a right-hand end elevation, mostly in section, of a table or cabinet embody/ing our invention. In this figure the load-carrying leaf is shown in its downwardly-tilted position. Fig. 2 is a right-hand end elevation, and in this gure the load-carrying leaf is shown in its elevated or upwardly-tilted position. Fig. 3 is a front side elevation, mostly in section, and in this figure the load-carrying leaf is in its upwardly-tilted position. Fig. 4 shows the projecting spring of panel wedged into the groove of the roller D' of lever D.
Referring to the drawings, A designates the top of the cabinet. TopAhas acentrallylocated opening a, extending vertically there through and arranged to be occupied by the load-carrying leaf B, that is hinged or pivoted horizontally and longitudinally of the cabin et, as at b, to the rear portion of the said top at the rear end of the said opening. Leaf B in its upwardly-tilted position occupies opening a, and when it is tilted downwardly carries t-he machine or load borne thereby below the top A.
To the under side of leaf B is secured a bar C, that is arranged transversely of the said side of the said leaf. The under side of the main and central portion of the said bar is horizontal, or approximately so, and the said horizontal surface (marked C in Fig. 2),ter minates at its forward end in the forwardly and upwardly extending incline C2, formed by the lower surface of the forward end of the said bar. Below bar C is a verticallytiltable lever D, that is arranged transversely of the cabinet and is fulcrumed at its rear end at d and horizontally and longitudinally of the cabinet to the under side of the rear portion of the top A. Member D is a lifting-lever that participates, as will hereinafter more fully appear, in the lifting of the load-carrying leaf from the latters lower position and has its forward end provided with a roller D', that is arranged to engage and ride upon the under side of the aforesaid bar C.
Lever D at its central portion is provided with a depending arm D2, that at its lower end bears a roller D3, that is arranged to rest and ride upon a rearwardly and upwardly extending incline e, formed upon a forwardly projecting arm e of the vertically-movable slide E, that engages vertical slideways A2,' formed upon the perpendicular back A of the cabinet. The said slide is elevated or lowered, as will hereinafter appear, and, in conjunction with the aforesaid lifting-lever D, is instrumental in controlling the elevation and lowering of the load-carryingleaf. The arrangement of parts is such, preferably, that in the elevated position (shown in Fig. l) of the said leaf roller D is at or rearward of the incline C2 of bar C and roller D3 is upon the lower portion of the slides incline c', so that when the said leaf is tilted downwardly roller D' rides forward upon incline C2 and rollerD3 rides upwardly upon incline e', and the said leaf in its lower position (shown in Fig. 2)
rests against roller C2, that rests upon the slides incline e'.
The rear portion of slide-arm e has a lateral slot e2, through which extends the slide-actu- IOO ating lever G, that "is arranged-longitudinally of the cabinet, forward-of theback-of the cabinet, and is .fulcrumed at its right-hand end horizontally and transversely of and-to the said back. The said lever at its left-hand end is operatively connected, bynieansoffa short link G,with the right-hand end f a rod G2, that at its opposite or left-hand end is pivoted at G3 horizontallyand :transversely of and to the lifting leaf H of the cabinet, which leaf is hinged horizontally and transversely of the'r cabinet -at Jn to the left-'hand end of the top. The arrangementvandtrend of the slide-actuating lever are such that it will properly control themovement of the engaging slide, and thearrangement ofl parts is such that when the 'loadcarrying 'leaf B is'in its elevatedpositi'on the'lifting leaf 4H forms a leftward extension of the top, and theslide, and consequently the'load-carrying leaf, is lowered when the' said lifting leaf istiltedto the right and over the opening inthe cabinettop.
A panel I is hinged orjpivoted IatA I,"hori zontally and longitudinally of the cabinet, to the forward portion of the top, anda curtain J has its opposite ends'attached' tothe said panel and the aforesaid load-'carrying leaf, respectively. The cabinets back protects the machine from the cabinetsrear side'when the machine (not shown) is 'lowered below the cabinets top,an` d vthe aforesaidpanel and attached curtain protect the machinef'from the forward side of the cabinet. When 'the loadcarryingleaf is in its upwai'dlyetilted position,
Vit will be observed (see Fig. 2) fthat `the'curtain is folded together-'and the panel'is tilted upwardly and rearwardly 'out' ofY the Way'of the operator. Theisaid' panel, to 'cateh"-.ad hold it in its upwardlyitilted'position,'is provided with aV rearwardjs'pring projection' or member l2, that is arranged'to be wedged'into the peripheral and annularj groove ydof vroller D and preferably upwardly A'into `the said groove beyond the center or axis of itheroller Vin the upwardly-tilted position ofthe'loadcarrying leaf, as shownmore clearlyi'Fig. 4, and of 'course the said'spring"projection,- and consequently the panel, is 'released upon nvtilting the load-carrying leaf downwardly.
